2. Living Things Have Cells
Section 1 Characteristics of Living Things
Chapter 1
Living Things Have Cells
All living things are composed of one or more cells.
A cell is a membrane-covered structure that contains all of the materials necessary for life.
Some organisms are made up of only one cell and some are made up of trillions of cells. In an organism with many cells, different kinds of cells perform specialized functions.
Single cell
Multi Cell organism

3. Respond to Change and Surroundings
Chapter 1
Respond to Change and Surroundings
Homeostasis is the maintenance of a stable internal environment.
Heart Beats Faster
Breathing Harder
But why????

4. Chapter 1 Respond to Change
Section 1 Characteristics of Living Things
Chapter 1
Respond to Change
A stimulus is anything that causes a reaction or change in an organism or any part of an organism.
Responding to External Change Organisms must respond to change in the external environment in order to maintain their homeostasis.

5. The chemicals of Life All cells are made of chemicals
The most abundant are
Carbohydrates
Proteins
Lipids
Nucleic acids

6. Chapter 1 Living Things Have DNA
Section 1 Characteristics of Living Things
Chapter 1
Living Things Have DNA
The cells of all living things contain the molecule deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA.
1. = deoxyribonucleic acid
2. in every cell
3. specialized molecules which provide
instructions for making proteins
DNA controls the structure and function of cells.
The passing of traits through DNA is called heredity.

7. Organisms make other organisms similar to themselves.
Section 1 Characteristics of Living Things
Chapter 2
Reproduction
Organisms make other organisms similar to themselves.
In sexual reproduction,
two parents produce offspring
share characteristics of both parents.
In asexual reproduction,
a single parent produces offspring
identical to the parent.

10. Living Things Use Energy
Section 1 Characteristics of Living Things
Chapter 2
Living Things Use Energy
Organisms use energy to carry out the activities of life.
An organism’s metabolism is the total of all of the chemical activities that the organism performs.
LOW
metabolism
High metabolism

11. Living Things Grow and Develop
Section 1 Characteristics of Living Things
Chapter 2
Living Things Grow and Develop
Development is the process of change
All living things, whether they are made of one cell or many cells, grow during periods of their lives.
Living things may develop and change as they grow.

16. Where do living things come from
All living things come from other living things via reproduction
Spontaneous Generation is a false theory which states: nonliving things can produce living things

22. What do Living things need to survive
A. Food
1. all organisms need food for energy &
raw materials to perform life processes,
build & repair cells

23. Food Heterotrophs Autotrophs a. = eats other organisms for energy
b. humans, deer, lizards
Autotrophs
a. = make their own food
b. plants

24. 1. oxygen &/or carbon dioxide
B. Water
1. organisms need water to
obtain chemicals from their surrounding
Break down food
grow
Move substances in within their bodies
reproduce
C. Air
1. oxygen &/or carbon dioxide
2. required in chemical process that
releases energy from food

25. Living Space
All organisms need a place to live, get food and water and shelter
Do to limited space some organisms must compete for space

26. Stable Internal Conditions
Organism must be able to keep their internal systems stable
Homeostasis- the maintenance of internal conditions
